CONDITIONS OF SALE.
This is a bona-fide public sale, for prompt cash settlement, and irrespon-
sible persons who are not sure whether they can pay for what they bid on,
are asked not to bid. The cataloguer has taken special pains to describe each
lot accurately. Errors will be corrected, but he reserves the sole right to de-
cide upon any claims. These are the only conditions under which bids will
be received.
Coins and medals are sold at so much per PIECE, and no lot will be sep-
arated. The auctioneer will accept any bid up to 50c., then 5c. up to
$2.50, when 10c. advance must be bid, up to $10.00, when no advance under
25 cents will be accepted. If there are 5 pieces in a lot and you wish to pay
$5.00 for the entire lot, then bid $1.00.
lot, then bid $1.00.
Auction sales are strictly for cash. Parties unknown to me and bidding
for the first time, must give bank or other reliable reference, or their bids
will not be executed.
Forward your bids as early as possible, as thousands of bids have to bo
entered. Do not make ridiculously low bids, such as 10c. and 15c. on foreign
silver coins worth several times over as bullion. Write your bids plainly,
with a pen if practicable.
Where the number of pieces in a lot is not given after the description,
there is but one piece in the lot.
Be sure you bid on the lot you wish to buy.
All coins, etc., are genuine unless otherwise described.
My charge for executing bids will be 5 per cent. No charge made for
bidding except for lots actually purchased. Remit by money order or New
York draft.
We will send a printed list of the prices realized for the three days'
sale, for $1.00, cash to be sent in advance.
If any further information is required as to valuation of lots, or how to bid,
please write the cataloguer, Thomas L. Elder.
